[NOVICE] New Version Errors

From
"Bee.Lists"
Date:
Well, I fell into the trap.  10.0 came out, and 9.6.5 overwritten in my package manager (homebrew).

I ‘think’ it was 9.6.5, but was not sure.  How can I test the nature of my data?  I’d like to bring back the previous
versionand pin it (so it won’t be overwritten).   

Any advice appreciated.


Cheers, Bee

The PG_VERSION file in the database directory contains the version.

The minor version is not relevant, you should take the latest one.
So if PG_VERSION has 9.6, use 9.6.5.
